Located on Charleston's historic Broad Street, Oak Steakhouse is a classic American steakhouse. A classic array of both wet and dry aged Certified Angus® Beef are featured on the menu. Ingredients are sourced locally and regionally from sustainable farmers and fisherman to accent the steakhouse menu. Items including local oysters on the half-shell, Clammer Dave's caper clams and a daily fresh fish selection depending on the season. Other popular dishes include the whole fried lobster, goat.sheep.cow artisanal cheese plate, wedge of Kurios Farms bibb lettuce salad, the house-made pasta and vegetarian plate. The expansive and impressive wine program at Oak Steakhouse emphasizes big California Cabernets and Old World reds from Italy and Bordeaux with more than 200 wines by the bottle and 20 wines by the glass. The bar attracts a loyal, local following from nearby businesses and neighborhoods with its great cocktails and happy hour. Inside a historic bank building that dates back to 1848, Oak's stately setting features three floors with five distinct dining areas. Arched windows, 20-foot ceilings, original metal work, fireplaces and 150-year-old heart pine floors, offers the perfect setting for enjoying a special evening.

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: In a historic bank building from 1848, Oak Steakhouse rises up three stories of leather booths, exposed brick, and cozy fireplaces. This is the place for seafood towers, Angus steaks, and bold Cabernets. It’s the heart of the Indigo Road group, helmed by James Beard semifinalist restaurateur Steve Palmer. There are now seven locations across the South, but none beat the original—Condé Nast Traveler calls it one of the best restaurants in Charleston, while others rank it among the best steakhouses in the country.

    Great service and great food. They even bought out a b-day cake for my wife. They certainly did not have to do that but they took the time to help us celebrate. Great evening.

    Good food but took 20 minutes and a reminder to get a coke and diet coke. Not the best steakhouse but not bad, meat a little overcooked, onion rings fabulous!

    Steaks were not cooked properly, found pieces of fish in my mushroom risotto. Overall value not worth the price of the meal.

    Food was ok at best. Not what I would expect from a prime steak. Overpriced wine list. Excellent sides.

    Our waiter was amazing and the food was great! Overall a bit expensive but you expect that from a great steakhouse. We arrived early for our reservation and expected to just grab a drink at the bar but they were happy to accommodate an earlier sit down which was amazing!
